Bubbles are fun to blow or play with in the tub, but bubbles are useful, too. This book explores how different animals use bubbles for fishing, sailing, talking, moving, and even keeping warm. Water spiders use bubbles to build an underwater home and water shrews can run across the water’s surface thanks to bubbles. As for the farts? Well, you’ll have to read the book to find out.

I loved the title of this book and couldn’t wait to find out more. I never imagined that bubbles could be used in so many ways. I learned a lot, like bubbles can be used for homes and some fish talk with bubbles. I especially like the pictures in this book. They are very pretty. It is one of the most beautiful books I’ve ever read. I would give this book a 9 out of 10.
